Reborn as a Mortal Heiress Pampered by Big Shots-Chapter 256 - 221 Boss is just willful!

In theory, a perfect-scorer and nationwide NO.1 in the college entrance exam should be able to choose any major they want.

However, this "demon" major at Beijing University not only evaluates entrance exam scores but also requires all applicants to complete a paper related to the major over the summer. The paper, along with their transcript, must then be mailed to the department’s email address.

Not only are the review criteria stringent, but the number of students admitted each year is extremely limited.

Last year, there were only a dozen or so freshmen accepted nationwide, and it’s estimated that this year will be the same, with no increase in numbers.

The Department of Biomedical Sciences, a short name for Life Science and Technology and Biomedical Sciences, is a highly sophisticated interdisciplinary field that combines engineering, medicine, and biology.

Each year, the department introduces the most advanced cutting-edge science and technologies and precision instruments from abroad.

With both resources and faculty extremely limited, it is said that cultivating a single graduate from the Department of Biomedical Sciences could cost the university millions, which is why the number of admissions is so small each year.

And such a daunting major also happens to be the most direct path to the national Institute of Life Sciences, causing numerous students to knowingly hit the south wall yet still stubbornly advance each year.

In past years, students who were selected for this major not only had high college entrance exam scores but also typically came from families with a background in medicine or were related to the field of life engineering.

Without such a background, the papers they write simply won’t catch the attention of those god-level professors in the department.

The head teacher remained silent, with the teachers exchanging looks of uncertainty.

Jiang Yunzhou tried to persuade Xia Ye, "The Department of Biomedical Sciences is no fun. I heard it even includes a dissection class, which is particularly scary. It’s not at all suitable for a beautiful girl like you. Come with me to the Computer Science Department instead. I’ll take you to school every day and buy you drumsticks to eat."

Xia Ye turned to glance at him.

There’s a dissection class?

I like it even more now!

Tian Ye and Zhou Yao didn’t try to persuade her.

Because of his college entrance exam results, Tian Ye was now a bit uncertain about Xia Ye’s true abilities.

While Zhou Yao, who had tasted the Chewing Candy Xia Ye prepared for students, though she herself knew nothing about medicine, she always felt that Xia Ye seemed quite talented in that aspect.

Zhao Yuhuan was not as optimistic as they were, casting a meaningful glance at Xia Ye without uttering a word, yet in her heart, she felt that the perfect-scorer was getting a bit carried away.

Scoring full marks in languages, mathematics, foreign language, and science is indeed impressive, but amongst these subjects, none is related to medicine.

Moreover, Xia Family’s business is unrelated to biomedical sciences, and it seems none of her brothers are involved in that field either.

If Xia Ye is thinking of getting by on just the biology knowledge from high school, it’s probably a bit of a pipe dream.

These thoughts going through Zhao Yuhuan’s head were also considered by the head teacher.

But he did not dismiss the idea outright. After surveying Xia Ye for a few moments, he knew that those who could enter the Department of Biomedical Sciences were rare talents, yet Miss Xia here was definitely not just anybody.

With the title of a perfect-scorer in the college entrance exam, those professors in the department would likely take that into consideration.

And for a student like Xia Ye, who is heavily sought after by various schools, even if she is not admitted to her first-choice major, the president of Beijing University would not let her go to another university.

First Middle School has sent many students to Beijing University, but none to the Department of Biomedical Sciences before.

It may not be possible for others, but if it’s Xia Ye... it may be worth a try.

All the pros and cons considered, the head of guidance patted Xia Ye’s shoulder solemnly, "So, there’s still some time before the major application deadline. First, take a look at the papers written by students who previously applied to the Department of Biomedical Sciences and do some research."

Xia Ye’s tone was quite polite, "Okay."

After the meeting ended, the head of guidance asked the other students and teachers to return to their classes, leaving Tian Ye and Xia Ye behind for a few more words of advice.

Jiang Yunzhou had come straight with his backpack and, after saying a word to Zhao Yuhuan, did not return to class but went straight home instead.

Recently, because he had done well on his exams, relatives were visiting his home particularly often; he was busier than during the New Year festivities.

Anyway, no matter which major Little Fairy chose, he was bound to be in the same university as her in the future, so he wasn’t worried. There was plenty of time to come.

While packing up his backpack, he teased Xia Ye with a careless laugh, "I heard that the principal of Beijing University, Principal Chen, is famously stern, even more so than Principal Chou of Yan University and our former Principal Tian. Are you scared?"

Xia Ye was at a loss for words for a moment. Jiang Yunzhou thought he had frightened her, and before getting up to leave, his lips curled into a smirk, "Don’t worry, I’ll protect you, no need to be afraid."

Xia Ye: ...

Was she scared? As if!

She hadn’t quite figured out how to reply, only because she remembered that day at Godear, at the very end when Principal Chen, Principal Chou, and Tian Hanwen all swooped towards her...

Stern???

Not only were they not stern, but they were also not very dignified!

Later, the head of guidance dawdled for almost twenty minutes before finally letting Xia Ye and Tian Ye go.

As they were leaving the office building, there was a group of girls waiting for their parents below, chatting about some gossip.

"I’m so envious of the school beauty. Right after the college entrance exam results came out, she became famous. She had cool Xia helping her celebrate her success and even got an endorsement for Jiang’s new product that even celebrities can’t get. Look at her graduation season, and then look at ours??"

"Yesterday, I even found her perfect-score essay online. Honestly, the one she wrote in classical Chinese before, I didn’t understand at all. I always thought the examiners gave her a full score just because classical Chinese seems grand, but after reading her modern Chinese essay yesterday... no comparison, no comparison..."

"But the school beauty is also unlucky, the launch event of her endorsed new product happens to be in July, the same as the grand reveal of ’Night God’s’ identity at the Youth Training Camp."

"What’s wrong with July?"

"Haven’t you seen the discussions online? Although our school beauty is impressive, she doesn’t have a fan base. If it really collides with the ’Night God’s’ Youth Training Camp in the days right before or after, it will certainly be overshadowed..."

Since the topic of discussion was related to ’Night God’ and the Youth Training Camp, Tian Ye casually listened in. He had seen the content of the girls’ discussions online before.

He paused his steps, waiting for Xia Ye who was two steps behind to catch up, with a tone full of mystery, "Move your launch event to either the beginning or the end of next month with President Jiang. Don’t schedule it in the middle."

Xia Ye, who came out later, hadn’t heard what the group of girls was discussing, so when he said that out of the blue, she asked, "Why?"

With an air of authority, Tian Ye said, "Don’t ask why! Just know that I’m doing this for your good!"

"..." Xia Ye looked at his somewhat agitated manner and suddenly felt that Principal Tian’s grandson was a bit crazy.

Without the heart to elaborate, Tian Ye strode off, his actions hidden behind humility.

He really put a lot of effort into protecting his classmate’s dignity!

Because he knew that the Youth Training Camp was on July 13th. If the launch event happened around that time as well, clashing with it, Xia Ye would have a rough time!
